On the state scene a six run explosion by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the sixth inning

made the return home disappointing for the Brew Crew Tuesday night.

That rally highlighted a 12 to humbling loss at American Family Field.

The score was tied at two when the visitors struck.

The pirates belted five home runs in the game.

Kalen Rae absorbed the loss and three Pittsburgh pitchers held Milwaukee batters in check.

Here is manager Pat Murphy.

We haven't had one of those games in a while and especially at home.

We've been in every single game.

I've bragged everybody about being in 85 and 90 games, you know, but credit to the pirates.

They did a great job.

Took a shot of it.

And Murphy says the team just has to get back to work.

You have to wash it off and kind of review why you're in the spot.

Might not have changed tonight's outcome, but certainly

herbal pins beat up a little bit.

I mean, we got a bunch of guys on the shelf.

You know that we've had that all year, but guys, it just have to be a little more consistent elsewhere.

And then I should link Philadelphia 10 one over the Dodgers.

The met seven Washington five Cincinnati 12 and Colorado six Atlanta six two over Arizona.

In the American League Tampa Bay five, the Yankees three Cleveland nine eight over Detroit.

Boston 12 Oakland nine Texas five four over the angels.

Minnesota at the White Sox postponed Kansas City at St. Louis postponed yesterday.

The Cubs were winners.

Nine two over Baltimore Houston four Miami three San Francisco four three over Toronto.

And Seattle was a winner eight three against San Diego.

Signing forward.

Hey, what high Smith would have helped the box get some of the athleticism back.

But it was not to be even though superstar guard Damien Lillard

reached out to the 27 year old forward who is known for his quickness and defense.

High Smith is going to stay with the Miami Heat.

He reportedly assigned a two year deal worth $11 million.

Derri Land Express reports that he averaged six points and three rebounds a game last season,

connecting at almost 40% of his three point attempts.

Former Badger forward, a keen Ford is headed to the 2024 Paris Olympics as a member of the team

from Puerto Rico.

The six foot eight Ford has Puerto Rican heritage through his mother.

He has played professional basketball for the last six years finishing this past season

with the Wisconsin herd in the NBA G league.

Puerto Rico is making its first appearance in the Olympic Games in 20 years.

Its first game is scheduled for July 27th.

And Caitlin Clark leads Angel Reese in the race for WNBA rookie of the year honors at the midpoint

of the season, according to a national panel of voters.

Also, the duo have garnered national headlines with record-setting rookie seasons,

so it's no surprise that they're leading candidates for the award.

Clark is leading the WNBA and points accounted for with 713 and also leading the chance

for consecutive double doubles with 13 and leads the league and rebounding with 11.9 a game.

The panel also unanimously voted Las Vegas forward.

Asia Wilson has the player of the year at the halfway point and Cheryl Reeves

has the coach of the year.
